Just cause you said two to three, we'll do one technique a time :|

jk >,> We can go the analysis route. Now tell me, what do you know of Rain? And how did it feel being limited to only Wind and Water?

I thought you were serious. :| I'm just used to replying in bulks lol.

I honestly don't know much about rain besides it's just that. Rain. I assume your chakra forms the clouds in which the rain falls in which I am led to believe that the rain itself is also infused with your chakra, giving you the ability and opportunity to manipulate it. That to me is generally what the rain element is and if I am wrong in any case please correct me as I am answering this without prior research. But that's all I know about rain. I know it can be lethal but that's a different subject.

To me, using water and wind was fine as I love both of those elements. They are my two favorites with water being my most favored and used. I thought it might be difficult to battle with just that though being that my proctor could use anything... Which he did... However, it made me, forced me, to be more creative and use the two elements to their full potential. It was a little challenging, I stressed over the test the entire time, but it looks like I turned out okay. :) Because I am the Goddess of Water, Slug Sage Moxxi. :)

Edit: I lied. I looked at the techniques and I see nothing about clouds. Just rain chakra forming. So I guess you form the "rain"/raindrops from emitting your chakra wherever and then it comes down or takes action from that exact point or falls and then you choose when it takes action.

... Indeed! I was just testing you, obviously. Good job, L. You have succeeded.

Miata weaves a handseal, emitting her chakra into the sky above. Clouds start to form and darken and it starts to rain heavily.

(Suiton: Ukojizai no Jutsu) - Water Style: Rain Tiger at Will Technique
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Long
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: A perception ninjutsu, allowing one to freely manipulate rain infused with the user's own chakra after waving the Bird → Rat → Ox → Monkey → Rat → Snake hand seals. The rain falls from rain clouds, formed with the users own chakra. During this technique, the falling raindrops are closely linked to the users senses. When the rain is obstructed by a chakra belonging to someone the existence of the target can be detected. The rain will keep on falling until the user uses the seal to cancel it.

Anyway, good job. I wanted to make a joke, but it'd be inappropriate >,> Now, I will explain the technique to you, then I want you to analyze it for me, covering everything about the technique you can think of, ranging from strengths and weaknesses to how you feel about it. Whatever comes to mind.


Rank: D
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Description: By focusing chakra into the user's hand they are able to gather rain drops towards their palms, the rain is molded together by chakra and forged into a high pressured orb. Once done the orb will shoot away from the users hand and the user will be knocked back. If it hits the enemy the enemy will be sent away flying or unbalanced.



This is the first technique, and its simplicity will tell you why. Using your newly gained rain chakra (made through combining Water and Wind) you will gather the falling rain to your palms. You will then use shape manipulation to form these rain drops into a pressurized orb. This orb will the be shot towards the opponent from your palm/hand, hitting the opponent back with some force and deals physical damage.

Alright so basically you gather your rain chakra into your hand and collect already falling raindrops where I believe it will just be floating in your hand as it gathers due to the chakra you're emitting from your palm. By then (when you've gathered enough) it seems like the wind will help condense the water and pressurize it. I am guessing it (the wind) will also help shoot in from your palm like a bullet. Maybe not that fast, but you get what I am saying. I see the technique as too slow for me, as you have to let it build up a little ( which may or may not take that long since it is small) but I see it shooting from your palm rather fast once it is made.

Indeed, that's pretty much it.


Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: When user makes it rain and then changes the compounds of the water(materials in the air).Then makes the rain sticky which binds the opponent in place for 2 turns.this jutsu lasts for 2 turns.



Next we got a pretty cool technique, where you will use your Rain chakra to change the compounds of the falling rain. This allows you to change the normal rain, into a sticky compound which is capable of binding the opponent in place. This technique lasts for two turns, and can bind the opponent for two turns too. Pretty cool overall.


Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: This technique creates a reflection of the user, this clone is unable to touch physical objects or cause harm. Every move that the user makes the clone mimics at the same time. The reflection clone is destroyed after one hit, this is a tactical technique.



The first of the weird rain techniques, where you will use your Rain chakra to create a reflection of you. This reflection is like a clone, looks exactly like you, but can't do any physical damage but rather mimics what you do. After one hit, its destroyed. Although it seems a bit useless, its more of a tactical kind of technique.

When user makes it rain
:lmao:

I'm immature.

Seriously though. First jutsu is simple, you make it rain, manipulating it to become a sticky like substance by using what's already in the air, I believe. Wherever it falls, it sticks, thus binding your opponent two turns. It lasts two turns as well.

Second one I actually find really cool. You manipulate the rain to make a "reflection" of you, taking on the appearance of a clone which mimics your every movement. Although this technique cannot perform anything physical or perform ninjutsu, it is a great technique for confusion and diversion.

I have one question about this technique. If you perform a jutsu, does the clone reflect that as well? So even though it wouldn't do anything, if I spit out some fire, will it look like the clone is also spitting out fire?

Nah, I believe its just movement that is mimicked.


Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: A jutsu that can only be used in rain to conceal oneself, this jutsu is considered a dynamic form of henge. After performing a row of hand-seals, the user seems to disappear. In truth, they have merely assumed a form that mimics rain. Fast movements and physical contact with others may reveal the user



Next is a useful technique, where you will use your Rain chakra to conceal yourself within the Rain. Its like a form of henge, but requires you to form a few hand seals before doing it. However, you are merely mimicking rain, and if you move fast, or have physical contact with others, it reveals you. Pretty bad ass still though, against non sensors.


Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: The user manipulates their chakra to condense a single raindrop into a more solid form. The raindrop becomes as sharp as a blade. The disadvantage to this jutsu is that the raindrop falls in a straight line.



After that, you will manipulate your Rain chakra to condense a single raindrop into a solid form. This raindrop, is then formed into a sharp like drop, through shape manipulation. Problem with this technique is that it falls only in a straight line. If you can't sense it, its a bit difficult to defend from to be honest, can you think of a way to defend against it?

Okay. So basically it is just a simple reflection of yourself. Got it. Still cool though. I still like it.

I hardly have to explain this one. It's basic. And heavy movement and physical contact gives away where you are. Easy. I like it.

Another one that's so simple it's hard to explain lol. Um, you manipulate one raindrop into a sharp blade and it falls in a straight line down. Alright, if you can't sense it, if the opponent has byakugan and is a badass, they're be able to see the drop changing form into something else and it dropping. Especially if it has your chakra in it. Because they'll be able to see directly over they're head at all times and this isn't a jutsu you can use anywhere. If you don't use it on top of them, it's useless. Because it will hit the ground, since it's falling straight down lol. Other than that, I can't see any other way to legitimately defend from it if you don't know it's coming. However I could obviously name several ways to defend from it if you know it's coming.

Question: If you have mastered water, one handseal, or wind, one handseal, can you do rain with one handseal? Or increased speed, in any case? Because I specialize in water 1HS and wind FHS. I would really like to know this. Or can you specialize in rain as 1HS or FHS?

Very good, and you'd have to choose, either Water with 1 hand seal and Wind faster hand seals, or Water 1 hand seal and Rain faster hand seals, or Rain 1 hand seal and Water/Wind faster hand seals. As for legitimately defending the technique >_> It'll come up with later techniques, tell me if you catch on xD Nonetheless, let us move on.


Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: The user of this technique must place chakra into one or more raindrops. As the drops of rain hit the ground they create a small sized spike of water from puddles on the ground. For this technique to work there must be water on the ground and it must be raining.



Next, we have a weird technique where you will focus your Rain chakra into one or more raindrops, as the rain falls. As the rain drop/drops fall on the ground, it creates a small spike from the puddle of water on the ground. This spike can quickly cause some damage, like pierce an opponent's leg. Obviously, there has to be some water on the ground for it to work, and the water on the ground has to be close to the target >,>


Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: By using chakra to condense a large amount of rainwater into one place, the user creates a spear of water in the clouds. The spear can at any time be called down to strike an opponent with only one hand-seal. The water will stay in the form of spear for a short amount of time (three posts). If the spear is not used by that time it will fall uselessly as rain. The only warning this technique gives is a second pause in the rain when the water is gathered and condensed.



After that, a technique where you will use your Rain chakra to condense a large amount of Rain in one spot, and then use shape manipulation to form said rain, into a spear of water. This spear can be called down at any time, with a single hand seal and stays in rain spear shape for up to 3 turns. If not, it falls uselessly as rain. The only warning it gives is that there is a slight pause in the rain, as the rain is condensed.

Alright. :)

And you keep saying these techniques are weird, but I find them well-explained and cool. o.o Well, with the first one, it is basically an "eruption". But with water. As the raindrop hits the ground and makes an impact, it will shoot up into a spike, reversing it's momentum from down to up as soon as it hits the ground. Now I don't think that's how it actually works, I think it works by the user mani0ulating their chakra inside the raindrop to do that, but that was the easiest way to explain it.

Question, can this be done with more than one raindrop, or just one? As the technique explains, it seems to be more than one.

Okay. A simple technique. You gather the water and falling water from the clouds and shape it into a spear that will stay in the sky/clouds for three turns. At any time during those three turns, you'll be able to weave a handseal and cause it to drop down where you made it. While making the spear, the rainfall temporarily stops as most of the water falling and being created is used for the spear. Which leads me to believe it is big and also may indicate something is set in place (an attack). If you do not use it in three turns, it disperses and it releases as regular rain drops.

Question, if you let it disperse after the three turns, does it still take your chakra? I assume yes, since it took chakra to make, but just double checking, since no one would want to spend chakra on something they didn't have to spend chakra on lol.

First question, yes, more than one spike. Its weird though, cause some stuff are vague as hell. Second question, yes, it still takes your chakra. Anyway, good. Moving onto the next batch.


Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: This technique causes a target of the user's choice to "attract" raindrops. The water in the rain drops will attach themselves over an opponent. Once enough water has gathered over an enemy it will also attach to the ground, holding the user's opponent to the ground.



Now this technique is interesting, as you will use your rain chakra, to cause the opponent to become like a magnet of sorts, for rain to be attracted towards it. This causes the falling rain to literally attach to the opponent, and later, attach to the ground as well. This holds the opponent in place for further attacks, but causes no damage.


Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: A jutsu that creates false clones of the user around drops of rain. Every clone is totally harmless and is destroyed by one hit or if they collide with the ground or the enemy. This technique is used as more of a distraction than anything.



This one is simple. You will use your Rain chakra, to create false clones around you, using the raindrops to do this. This creates a very confusing effect, that's great for confusion, and would be best used with Genjutsu or the like. If the "clone" is struck, or hits the ground, it disappears. Another weird Rain technique.


Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: A jutsu that actually uses the victim's clothing as a medium to effect him or her. By filling the clothing with water-elemental chakra the user causes the clothing to fully retain all water it comes in contact with which will gradually cause the clothing to become heavier and heavier. Unfortunately, this jutsu that does not create water, so it is only useful in a rainy or otherwise wet environment



Used to be one of my favorite techniques, in my days as a Rain user. Using your opponent's clothes as a medium, you will use your Rainc hakra to cause the opponent's clothes to retain all the water it comes into contact with. This makes it heavier and heavier, the longer it stays. Cool way to get someone naked, I mean, heavy.

Understood.

Hmmm, I am not really sure how the rain would attracts to the opponent, which I would like to know unless in battle I wouldn't be expected to explain it in depth, which I like to do for the sake of being clear... But anyway, as the technique says, you'll enable some of the falling rain to stick and attach to the opponent, weighing them down and eventually stopping them in place. Seemingly decent technique. A downside is there is no actual damage coming from the technique itself. Not really a downside, in my opinion. More like a plus that could have been, lol.

Moving on, this might as well be a genjutsu lol. You'll use the rain around you to project harmless versions or clones of yourself to confuse the opponent. Once they get hit or collide with the ground, they disappear. I like it but meh.

This one is easy to explain lol. Exert your water chakra into the opponent's clothes and the clothing will retain all of the rain or water it comes into contact with lol. Great way to get someone naked. I mean heavy. I would have said to fill the opponent's clothes with rain chakra but... "By filling the clothing with water-elemental chakra".
